Last weekend at Cosmic Creek.

From groms to legends, Cosmic Creek brought together generations of surfers for a weekend of waves, old boards, good music, and good company.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for the kick-off party on the farm and brought a little extra color to the weekend at our tie-dye station between heats.

Major gratitude to Vissla and everyone who made it such a epic weekend. Until next time.

GOOD MEDICINE

Together again.

The Sunstroke Serenaders return to the Peace Dome for an evening of Grateful Dead tunes, timeless songs of the counterculture, and the kind of music best enjoyed together. Day of Dead 2024 was their first time sharing their tunes with us on the farm. Since then they’ve become part of the soundtrack of this community, helping shape some of our favorite days here. It’s always a celebration.

Let’s gather for a summer evening of music, movement and connection + groovy light projections from our friends at Liquid Lights.

We’re honored to welcome back our culinary mentor and James Beard Award–winning chef Joshua McFadden for a special Community Table dinner this Friday, June 12.

Joshua is one of the defining voices in vegetable-driven cooking and the author of Six Seasons: A New Way with Vegetables — a book that reshaped the way many of us cook at home, from the market, the garden, and the season.

His return to the farm comes after witnessing The Ecology Center’s vision fully realized. The evening’s menu will be guided by that connection: field, season, and table.
